Which Would You Rather Have???

Jaws12 · 08-02-2009, 05:37 PM

Which configuration would you rather have, Z Touring, Sport, 7AT, NAV or Z Touring, Sport, 6 spd synchroRev?

Just curious because I haven't seen a lot of 6spd with NAV.

I think I would now (in hindsight) do the 6spd over 7AT w/ NAV.

Since I'm driving here in LA most of time in bumper to bumper traffic I went with a Touring with Nav,Sport, 7AT

Same here, though my choices were:

370Z 7AT w/ Touring + Nav
370Z 6MT w/ Sports

I can't imagine a sportscar without a MT. That's one (and probably the only) reason I'm not fired up about the GT-R.

Had the auto not been as good as it is, I would have gotten the manual. This is not your typical slush box.

Gotta be the 6-speed. Even in stop and go. IMUSR&TVVHO (seriously people, when will Internet abbreviations ever end???) a car without a manual cannot ever achieve its true, driver-vehicle emotive potential.

Well, I have a 7AT Touring Coupe with navigation and the other few options offered and love it. Obviously, you can do without a navigation system just as any other conveniences (let's face it; most of what comes standard on vehicles today are totally unnecessary to the performance of the car and weren't even offered on true sports cars not many years ago).

However, why do without them?

zZSportZz · 08-02-2009, 09:27 PM

Manual all the way. If i wanted an auto I would have bought the G37

Sports car = MT for me.

IMO mine is the ideal setup. Navi with 6MT. But of the choices I'd take no navi as long as I got the 6 speed.

chris410 · 08-02-2009, 10:15 PM

I went with the auto, very responsive and the test times were pretty impressive. That being said, if you plan on big upgrades, the manual would be the way to go since the auto is more restrictive as far as the amount of power it can handle.

A lot easier to upgrade the audio system as well.

I ended up getting the sport, nav, and the 6sp. Its the best config IMO.
